Starting the engine uses the battery to turn the engine over. Because turning over the engine requires a LOT of electrical power, the car automatically shuts off any electrical devices that are powered on, so it has more electricity to use.

Why does the CD player stop working when starting the engine but the radio works ok?

The CD player may stop working when starting the engine due to a temporary drop in voltage from the vehicle's electrical system during engine cranking. This voltage dip can disrupt the CD player's operation, as it may require a stable power supply to function properly. In contrast, the radio might have a lower power draw or a built-in capacitor that allows it to continue working during brief voltage fluctuations. Additionally, some vehicles are designed to prioritize essential systems like the radio when the engine is started.
